Prey preference in stoneflies: a comparative analysis of prey vulnerability

Oecologia, 1988
Laboratory feeding trials were conducted with the predaceous stonefly Hesperoperla pacifica and a number of mayfly and dipteran prey species to investigate the effects of predator size, and prey size and morphology, on the predator's success. Observations under dim red light permitted estimation of encounter rate (E/min), attack propensity (A/E ...

ON A PREY–PREDATOR–PATHOGEN MODEL WITH PREY PREFERENCE: A THEORETICAL STUDY

Journal of Biological Systems, 2011
In the present paper, we study a prey–predator–pathogen model where the prey population suffer from an SI epidemic. The predator is assumed to exercise preferential predation. The prey preference mechanism ranges from predation only on the susceptible or only on the infective to proportional predation on both the prey types.

Detecting Prey Preferences and Prey Switching

2021
AbstractIn this chapter I consider the question of whether predators switch their preference for different types of prey as those prey change in abundance. There are numerous experiments in the literature focusing on this, but generally they have focused on a simplified analysis that ignores the functional response.
